DARK NOCTURNE

a night owl's blog

Unless you’ve been marooned on Mars, you know Donald Trump will be the 45th President of the United States. I won’t lie, I’m surprised, but on the other hand, I’m very relieved, because Hillary scared the crap out of me.

I’m not going to harp on the election. It’s done. I’m sooooooooo glad it’s done, but this country is so fractured, it makes me sad. For all its imperfections, America’s a great country and I am very proud to be an American.

So to whoever reads this post, I’m going to ask you, regardless of your political affiliation or who you voted for, to do four simple things.

Give Trump a chance, let him lead.

Start acting civil – no, human – towards each other again.

Stop with the hate and vitriol. Just fucking stop already.

If you want to move to Canada or New Zealand, then shut up and go.

If we start with those simple tenets, we really can make America great again.
